We are officially launching a free online wellness community for all women (entrepreneurs, business owners, employees, students, professionals, mums, and women who are full-time CEOs of their homes) who are looking for a sense of community and belonging and want to connect with other like-minded women and optimize their wellness 🎉.

As a woman, it is easy to feel isolated because you have to take on so much, especially when you have kids to care for, and often your mental or physical wellness takes a back seat. Feeling isolated is when one desires connection. It is also easier to lose motivation with your health regimes when you are alone. When you have a community where you can gain health knowledge and get tips from other women on different areas of health and wellness, you feel empowered and motivated again to take back control over your health 👏🏼.

➡️ Join the group at https://www.facebook.com/groups/acaciawellness
💪 As women, we are stronger together!

Alcohol requires B vitamins (especially B1 (thiamine) and B3 (niacin)) and glutathione to be detoxified. This can deplete your glutathione stores.  The liver breaks down Tylenol into a toxic by-product that is further detoxified by glutathione. If your glutathione stores are depleted from alcohol consumption, it can take longer to break down this toxic by-product leading to Tylenol (acetaminophen) toxicity and acute liver failure.  𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿?

👢 Hydrate with water before, during, and after drinking alcohol

🎉 Try to avoid sugary drinks

👢 Try to stick to one or two types of alcohol rather than mixing

🎉 Take a good quality B complex (active, bioavailable forms of each vitamin is better)

👢 Support your detox pathways with a good quality NAC (N-acetylcysteine) or liposomal glutathione supplement

🎉 Electrolytes before and/or after drinking… yes this includes magnesium!

👢 IV nutrient drips before which have B vitamins, magnesium, zinc, and glutathione delivered right into the blood/body for maximal absorption can help.

⭐ Happy Monday ⭐! Here's your weekly "quote for thought". I came across this a week ago and have been pondering it. I realized that many of my decisions are based on how it makes me feel a second time or on the second exposure.

Sometimes acting on the first impulse can be advantageous for getting opportunities but there is also something to be said by not taking advantage right away and waiting for the “second impulse”. The “first impulse” may be based on a superficial desire from the look of the object or the $$ amount you would earn. The “second impulse” may come from a deeper desire, and, something that is more aligned with your vision or values. Perhaps the first impulse is “lust” and the second impulse is “love”.

Are you a first or second impulse type of person?

🧪 This is a comprehensive test to help us objectively assess whether you are 𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗲𝗻 𝗱𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝘁 (see previous posts for symptoms) and if it is related to low progesterone or too much estrogen. 

A blood test can show estrogen and progesterone in the blood where the DUTCH can go one step further and show us how the body is using and metabolizing the hormones.  It provides insight into how your liver is detoxifying estrogen  (is it favouring healthy or more inflammatory estrogens)

That’s not all! 😱 We can also get a more comprehensive look at all your androgens not just your testosterone levels to see if that is affecting your estrogen balance - if you are also experiencing 𝗶𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗴𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿 𝗰𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗲𝘀, 𝗮𝗰𝗻𝗲, 𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀, 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿  𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗖𝗢𝗦, it's worth investigating your androgens like DHEA, DHT, and testosterone too.
